[PlanetCCRMA] Kernel Panic 2

i didn't know it could be a driver issue, i've had a problem with alsa
driver installation,
system says module snd-intel8x0 couldn't be loaded because of irq or ioports
problem.
i don't know how to solve it, i have a creamware soundcard that have no
linux driver,
i want linux to ignore it, i want to use my onboard sound ( chipset nforce2
APU ), it has a free
OSS driver that may sound bad ( i've read it on internet ) anyway i didn't
manage to install it.
that's the only problem i've had with red planet cds, it is caused by one
peripheral, but i don't know wich one.

i looked in proc/ioports and saw many unknown devices from nvidia, i also
looked in hardware monitor,
usb seems to work, so i don't know what to do.
alsaconf didn't recognize my onboard sound although i didn't install oss
driver at the second install
( i 've formatted the system twice, windows trauma! ).
i was also wondering if it was an ide controller problem, there's an
integrated ide controller on my chipset, nforce2

here's the description of my sytem :

# grub.conf generated by anaconda

#

# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file

# NOTICE: You do not have a /boot partition. This means that

# all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /, eg.

# root (hd0,2)

# kernel /boot/vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hda3

# initrd /boot/initrd-version.img

#boot=/dev/hda

default=2

timeout=10

splashimage=(hd0,2)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz

title Red Hat Linux (2.4.19-1.ll)

root (hd0,2)

kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.19-1.ll ro root=LABEL=/ hdd=ide-scsi

initrd /boot/initrd-2.4.19-1.ll.img

title Red Hat Linux (2.4.18-17.8.0)

root (hd0,2)

kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-17.8.0 ro root=LABEL=/ hdd=ide-scsi

initrd /boot/initrd-2.4.18-17.8.0.img

title DOS

rootnoverify (hd0,0)

chainloader +1




Fstab is like this ( i changed the a into an e on line 5 ) it made the
system works but now it can't find swap partition :

LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1

none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0

none /proc proc defaults 0 0

none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0

/dev/hde4 swap swap defaults 0 0

/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0

/dev/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom1 iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0

/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0
